VENUS BAY - January 2010


In January we put Babe on a plane to Japan and with our new found freedom set out to discover Venus Bay. We had been Internet surfing the real estate pages when we came across a little beach cottage that sparked our interest. One Hour and fifty five minutes later we were in quaint little seaside village of Venus Bay. The first couple of places we checked out left us a little dispirited but the third was perfect. It had been listed at 9am that morning and by 2pm the deal was done and it was ours. Add Image


There is a lot of maintenance and improvement work to be done but each time we visit we manage a little more. It is a 2/3 bedroom, lounge, kitchen / dining with a deck out the back. We love it and have had heaps of fun so far and hopefully many years more ahead. We have replaced six Banksia trees with the exquisite Tulip tree and a Golden Elm on the front lawn. We are about to start some serious painting inside which will tidy it up. The outside will have to wait until we have replaced some weatherboards and windows, but no hurry.
